This makes no sense; if IRQs are disabled, check_preemption_disabled()
should bail early per:
if (irqs_disabled())
goto out;

It's my bug in page_fault, here is the solution:
@@ -358,6 +358,8 @@ asmlinkage void noinstr do_page_fault(struct pt_regs *regs)
__do_page_fault(regs);
+ local_irq_disable();
+
irqentry_exit(regs, state);
